Your Phoenix Suns closed out a playoff series on their home court for the first time since 2007, by beating the Los Angeles Clippers to win the series 4-1. In the interim, they’d won 6 playoff series, but all closed out on the road.
This one wasn’t easy. Their 20-point second half lead got cut to two — 130-128 — with more than two minutes to play as the Suns just could not get stops and had lost their edge on offense. They didn’t even get a shot for Kevin Durant from the 10 minute mark to the 1-minute mark and that was on a rare runout off a steal.
